Is there a one hour rule when towing a car away?

Question:
My car was towed away on Friday as I had parked ajacent to a drop in the pavement, something which I see all the time in London. I am happy to pay a parking ticket, but the tow fee was £150. Someon said there has to be an hour time period between issuing a ticket and towing your car away. Is this true?

Parking is now seen as a cash cow so the slightest misdemeanour will get you a fine of some sort before you even get out of the car - Think London Bus Lane and yellow box cameras where the tickets are issued by a machine direct to you house with no appeal allowed. Thats what Labour is doing to the ordinary citizens of this country.
